Daily Defence Moisturiser from English Rose Cosmetics

Sodium
Hyaluronate is the salt of Hyaluronic Acid and occurs naturally in skin, it holds
1000 x its own weight in water which makes it an intensive moisturiser
resulting in plumped out, wrinkle free skin.

Betaine is a by
product of sugar beet production and is GMO free and Ecocert approved.It attracts water which makes it a good
moisturiser.It tightens the skin which
prevents water loss and prevents penetration of harmful substances into the
skin i.e. allergens and pollutants.

A
study was conducted on 22 panellists with inflamed blotchy skin that showed
Betaine reduced hyper pigmentation by 86% after 56 days.

Anti-oxidants
and Free Radicals

Free Radicals - UV radiation is one of the major creators
of free radicals. Free radicals can damage cell function and alter genetic
material. Free radical damage causes wrinkles by activating the metalloproteinase’s
that break down collagen. They cause cancer by changing the genetic material,
RNA and DNA, of the cell.Anti-oxidants
neutralize free radicals and are therefore important ingredients to include in
skincare products.

Vitamin C (ascorbyl
palmitate) – as well as being an anti-oxidant it increases collagen production
resulting in plumped out skin, regulates melanin production resulting in
brighter more even skin tone, and strengthens blood capillaries resulting in
reduced redness

Rooibos or red bush
is a plant indigenous to South Africa it makes a lovely tea which excellent
health benefits.It is a powerful
natural anti-oxidant which protects the skin from the inside out against harmful
free radicals (often UV exposure).It
has a naturally has anti-bacterial action which makes it effective against acne.It is also rich in zinc which regulates sebum
production.

Texture - I’ve
opted for a very light gel like texture that feels substantive yet sinks in
quickly, is non sticky and non greasy.

Benefits - The
key ingredients used have been clinically proven to be effective against aging
by protecting, moisturising and firming the skin.

Value for
Money Contains
only naturally effective ingredients and retails on line for £14.00 for 50ml –
the texture and ingredients used are typically found in premium products
retailing in excess of >£25.00

I
do not use Petrol in any of my products i.e. Petrolatum or Paraffinum
Liquidum – there are so many more effective vegetable products which are more
expensive, but our skin deserves it.I
source naturally active ingredients that are non-animal tested and the majority
are Ecocert approved.
